Regel 1:
De '''Admiraliteit van Engeland''' was de voormalige autoriteit in het [[Verenigd Koninkrijk]], opgericht rond [[1400]]. De ''admiralty'' was verantwoordelijk voor de bevelvoering van de Koninklijke Marine: de ''Royal Navy''. Oorspronkelijk uitgevoerd door één persoon: ''High Admiral'' of kortweg: de [[admiraal]], bijgestaan door een staf: ''Office of the High Admiral'' genoemd.
In [[1546]] was het Koning [[Henry VIII]] die een commissie van de marine instelde de: ''Council of the Marine'', later de ''Navy Board'', deze commisie verzorgde de rechtspraak binnen de marinewereld. Het operationele bevel over de marine bleef echter onder bevel van de ''Lord High Admiral'', dez lord was één van de negen grote officiers het Koninkrijk.
In het begin van de 18de eeuw, was Koning [[Willem IV]] de laatste ''Lord High Admiral'', nadat deze voor de [[Frankrijk|Fransen]] uit [[Nederland]] was gevlucht. Hierna in [[1628]] was het Koning [[Charles I]] die het bevel van de marine niet langer onder één persoon liet gelden maar onder een gezamenlijke commissie:''Admiralty'', vanaf [[1831]] officieel als: ''Office of Admiralty''.
In [[1964]] werd de ''Office of Admiralty''; de ''Office of Airforce'' en de ''War Office'' samengevoegd in het: ''Ministery of defence''.

[edit] The Board of Admiralty▼
When the office of Lord High Admiral was in commission, as it was for most of the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries until it reverted to the Crown, it was exercised by a Board of Admiralty, officially known as the Commissioners for Exercising the Office of Lord High Admiral of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, &c. (alternatively of England, Great Britain or the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland depending on the period).▼
The Board of Admiralty consisted of a number of Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty. The Lords Commissioners were always a mixture of admirals, known as Naval Lords or Sea Lords, and Civil Lords, normally politicians. The quorum of the Board was two commissioners and a secretary.▼
The president of the Board was known as the First Lord of the Admiralty, who was a member of the Cabinet. After 1806, the First Lord of the Admiralty was always a civilian, while the professional head of the navy came to be (and is still today) known as the First Sea Lord.▼
